RKL Note

R.K.Laxman (who suffered a severe illness a few months ago) has been cartooning again as the reappearance of newer versions of his legendary You Said It pocket cartoon and various other illustrations in The Times of India in the last few weeks will testify. But last week, it was very clearly visible that full recovery hasn't yet happened for there were a few strips that were lacking the sharpness in the artwork - some of the usual caricatures were not well drawn suggesting that it isn't coming out of the hand consistently. Can only wish him full recovery and a return to his best form.
